larry ferguson is here, the director of the hud 202 programs that gets the senior housing funds and an important thing to know about the hud 202 programs not only do they provide capital, but a rental subsidy. so seniors on social security, or even less income don't have to worry about whether they can make a $1,000 rent payment. they pay 30% of whatever they can pay and the federal government helps us make up the difference, so we can keep people housed. there are folks out there who understand why this is not such a great investment. so i want to take one second to tell you about this. we know there that we can save money to medicare and medicaid by housing seniors in this setting. so it's an unbelievable investment and one that i hope we'll keep on doing. [ applause ] i don't have time to thank you everybody at hud, but without your commitment to make these things real we couldn't get them done. we thanked the mayor, but the mayor's staff at the mayor's office of housing, one of the humblest public servants you will ever meet -- olson has been doing this i think since 1906.

hud, doj and ore agencies have brought a record number of fair lending claims revealing that hundreds of thousands of borrowers were discriminated against, and many of these discriminatory actions, of course, have led to borrowers being underwater or even losing their homes. one of the things we are heartennenned by is the prominence of the office of fair lending and equal opportunity which, of course, is housed at the cfpb. this office is charged with ensuring that rules like the qm rule and ability to repay rule would be implemented in a fair manner and that the cfpb's supervision and enforcement efforts are comprehensive and diligent. it's also important to note that the safe harbor provision does not exempt lenders from discrimination or fair lending claims. even borrowers who receive a safe harbor mortgage or a qualified mortgage can experience discrimination, so that's a very important point to keep in mind. it would also be important to insure that compensation schemes did not contribute to consumers receiving higher cost mortgages when they really qualify for lower cost produc
